Rama.

00:01:20.240 --> 00:01:21.560
[light-hearted music playing]

00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:29.280
You are Lord Mahadeva.

00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:33.240
You are worshipped
by humans and gods alike.

00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:37.280
Yet You chant the name
of a human being.

00:01:38.240 --> 00:01:39.120
Why so?

00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:42.240
You are the Supreme Mother Goddess.

00:01:43.720 --> 00:01:47.120
Yet You ask me the answer
to this question.

00:01:47.880 --> 00:01:48.760
Why so?

00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:51.480
Or perhaps,

00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:56.320
You do not tire of listening
to Lord Rama's story.

00:01:56.840 --> 00:01:58.760
When You do not get tired
of narrating it,

00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:01.080
why would I be tired of
listening to it?

00:02:02.720 --> 00:02:04.000
The truth is

00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:06.400
that uttering Lord Rama's name

00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:10.280
and talking about Him
appeases the mind.

00:02:10.920 --> 00:02:12.040
Why would it not?

00:02:13.400 --> 00:02:15.840
Despite being confined
to human life,

00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:22.200
Vishnu's avatar, Lord Rama, will
establish new principles of dignity.

00:02:22.320 --> 00:02:23.720
[light-hearted music playing]

00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:31.240
Please narrate the Ramayana
to me once again.

00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:33.720
I have chanted the Ganesh Stuti.

00:02:34.520 --> 00:02:36.840
So, there will be no disruptions.

00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:39.200
As You wish.

00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:44.280
Then let us begin

00:02:45.920 --> 00:02:47.560
the tale of the nation's soul

00:02:48.640 --> 00:02:50.400
and the Supreme Self,

00:02:51.160 --> 00:02:54.720

the upholder of righteousness!

'which, during the Treta Yuga, '

00:03:56.520 --> 00:03:59.560
'was the capital of the kings
of the Suryavansha descent.'

'The birthplace of Bhagiratha,

all the luxuries in the world, '

Yes, sir.

00:05:19.200 --> 00:05:23.120
it is with your blessing
that I am very ably

00:05:24.560 --> 00:05:26.600
running the kingdom of Ayodhya.

00:05:27.440 --> 00:05:28.880
The people of Ayodhya are happy.

00:05:30.320 --> 00:05:32.440
I have everything today.

00:05:47.400 --> 00:05:48.760
A son

00:05:50.320 --> 00:05:54.480
who will hold the reins of Ayodhya
as my successor.

00:05:56.160 --> 00:05:57.400
A son

00:05:59.840 --> 00:06:02.640
who shall continue the legacy
of the Suryavanshas.

00:06:03.520 --> 00:06:05.160

and offer flowers to them.

Talking about your weaknesses
before the subjects

00:07:38.080 --> 00:07:39.680
only breaks their spirit.

00:07:41.160 --> 00:07:43.480
It is not befitting
of the King of Ayodhya.

00:07:46.440 --> 00:07:47.880
Kaikeyi, do not forget

00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:52.760
that the King of Ayodhya
is after all human.

00:07:54.640 --> 00:07:55.760
Do you not

00:07:57.200 --> 00:07:58.920
fathom my plight?

00:08:02.320 --> 00:08:03.280
You and I

00:08:05.200 --> 00:08:07.840
have harboured this dream
for so long,

00:08:09.880 --> 00:08:11.760
and it has not yet been fulfilled.

[iron gates opening]

Your Majesty, it is said

00:08:32.800 --> 00:08:35.360
that the dreams seen at dawn
always get fulfilled.

00:08:38.680 --> 00:08:41.200
I saw a dream at dawn, Your Majesty.

00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:44.880
I heard the gentle footsteps
of tiny feet

00:08:46.560 --> 00:08:48.520
resonating in our courtyard.

00:08:49.040 --> 00:08:52.520
Our gardens and chambers

00:08:53.280 --> 00:08:55.240
resonated with the laughter

00:08:56.720 --> 00:08:58.200
of your children, Your Majesty.

Children!

00:09:06.200 --> 00:09:10.800
Were any of them sons, Kaikeyi?

00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:12.320
All four, Your Majesty.

00:09:14.600 --> 00:09:17.280
I dreamt that you had four sons.

00:09:18.800 --> 00:09:20.960
The four heirs
to the Raghuvansha dynasty.

00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:23.400
Really, Kaikeyi?

[pleasant music playing]

00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:25.400
You arrived unannounced.

00:10:26.040 --> 00:10:28.680
What brings you here
all of a sudden?

00:10:29.520 --> 00:10:30.400
A battle.

00:10:35.800 --> 00:10:39.480
I need my friend Nemi's help.

00:10:40.040 --> 00:10:43.000
How come the mighty Jatayu,
a descendant of Garuda,

00:10:43.320 --> 00:10:44.920
needs my help?

00:10:48.120 --> 00:10:49.880
Do not jest, my friend.

00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:52.040
I jest you not.

00:10:52.520 --> 00:10:54.960
This is no ordinary battle.

00:10:55.440 --> 00:11:00.200
Lord Indra sent me to seek your help

00:11:00.800 --> 00:11:05.040
as Sambhasura has wreaked havoc
in Devaloka.

00:11:05.760 --> 00:11:09.400
His army of demons has encamped
in the Dandaka forest.

00:11:09.560 --> 00:11:12.320
His ship is filled
with terrifying demons.

00:11:12.520 --> 00:11:15.760
That illusory demon can appear
in multiple places at once

00:11:16.320 --> 00:11:18.480
and attack the opponent.

00:11:19.400 --> 00:11:23.760
That is why Lord Indra
sent me to you.

00:11:24.080 --> 00:11:27.440
Other than King Nemi of Ayodhya,

00:11:27.800 --> 00:11:31.440
nobody can put an end
to Sambhasura's terror.

00:11:33.080 --> 00:11:36.720
Will you help your friend,
King Nemi?

00:11:37.120 --> 00:11:38.640
[gripping music playing]

00:11:45.280 --> 00:11:46.760
[suspenseful music playing]

00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:56.920
Everybody attending the court
of Ayodhya is hereby informed

00:11:57.040 --> 00:12:00.760
that Lord Indra, Ayodhya's ally,

00:12:01.520 --> 00:12:03.280
has sought our help.

00:12:03.880 --> 00:12:08.120
Ayodhya shall honour its alliance.

00:12:09.040 --> 00:12:10.480
In this battle

00:12:11.920 --> 00:12:13.200
against Sambhasura,

00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:17.560
I hereby declare
Ayodhya's unconditional support.

00:12:17.800 --> 00:12:19.120
[music playing]

00:12:23.960 --> 00:12:25.280
Pardon me, Your Majesty.

00:12:32.520 --> 00:12:33.880
[tense music playing]

00:12:36.920 --> 00:12:41.280
Why must we be part of a war
that has nothing to do with Ayodhya?

00:12:44.560 --> 00:12:46.840
The King of Ayodhya does not need

00:12:47.040 --> 00:12:49.040
to justify his decision,
Sage Jabali.

00:12:49.400 --> 00:12:50.600
Minister Sumant,

00:12:51.040 --> 00:12:55.000
His Majesty has appointed me
as the people's representative.

00:12:55.720 --> 00:12:57.560
So, His Majesty is obligated

00:12:57.800 --> 00:13:01.160
to answer me in light of
the people's best interests.

00:13:02.360 --> 00:13:05.800
Guru, I am willing
to withdraw my questions

00:13:06.680 --> 00:13:09.120
if they are
in violation of the rules.

00:13:10.360 --> 00:13:14.240
Sage Jabali always
raises unwarranted questions.

00:13:14.760 --> 00:13:16.480
A king is obligated

00:13:17.760 --> 00:13:19.480
to seek the opinion of his subjects.

00:13:19.720 --> 00:13:21.080
That is the rule.

00:13:21.720 --> 00:13:27.640
I hope His Majesty will answer
all your questions, Sage Jabali.

00:13:27.880 --> 00:13:29.040
Pardon me, Your Majesty.

00:13:29.600 --> 00:13:31.000
Let me present our concern.

00:13:31.680 --> 00:13:35.360
If Sambhasura wins,
it causes us no harm.

00:13:35.520 --> 00:13:39.280
If the gods win,
we do not stand to benefit.

00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:41.960
Then why must we join this battle

00:13:42.560 --> 00:13:46.000
and squander our wealth and men?

00:13:46.440 --> 00:13:47.800
[dramatic music playing]

00:13:50.680 --> 00:13:55.920
Sage Jabali, there are three reasons
for Ayodhya joining this battle.

00:13:56.280 --> 00:13:58.840
The first reason is friendship.

00:13:59.640 --> 00:14:03.040
My friend has asked for my help.

00:14:03.680 --> 00:14:08.040
Those of the Raghu clan
always honour their friendship.

00:14:09.760 --> 00:14:11.040
The second reason.

00:14:11.280 --> 00:14:14.920
If an approaching fire
is not doused,

00:14:15.840 --> 00:14:19.480
it will not take too long
for it to reach you.

00:14:22.640 --> 00:14:26.440
The Dandaka forest is not far
from Ayodhya.

00:14:27.120 --> 00:14:28.680
The third reason.

00:14:29.280 --> 00:14:30.760
It is a king's duty

00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:35.640
to protect his subjects
from any and all danger.

00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:36.800
From the danger

00:14:38.120 --> 00:14:39.360
that is upon them

00:14:40.200 --> 00:14:42.160
as well as that is impending.

00:15:12.120 --> 00:15:15.360
Your Majesty, the question
is not that easily answered.

00:15:16.920 --> 00:15:21.080
A king cannot leave the kingdom
in the absence of an heir.

00:15:21.280 --> 00:15:22.800
[poignant music playing]

00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:32.800
I do not doubt
your valour and prowess,

00:15:33.800 --> 00:15:35.760
but the future
cannot be predicted, Your Majesty.

00:15:36.760 --> 00:15:38.800
If something untoward
were to happen to you in battle,

00:15:41.560 --> 00:15:42.880
what would become of Ayodhya

00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:45.680
and the Raghu clan, Your Majesty?

00:15:47.320 --> 00:15:48.360
Sage Jabali.

00:15:49.520 --> 00:15:52.800
The foremost obligation that comes
with the throne of Ayodhya

00:15:53.720 --> 00:15:55.200
is that of upholding righteousness

00:15:56.000 --> 00:15:57.840
and not the continuation
of one's clan.

00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:04.560
Your concern is to secure
the future of my clan

00:16:04.960 --> 00:16:06.440
whereas my concern

00:16:07.040 --> 00:16:10.840
is to uphold the honour, dignity
and prestige of my ancestors.

00:16:13.320 --> 00:16:16.480
I am the descendant
of King Harishchandra

00:16:17.280 --> 00:16:21.120
who renounced his family
to uphold the truth.

00:16:21.880 --> 00:16:23.640
I am the descendant
of King Bhagiratha

00:16:24.000 --> 00:16:28.960
who brought Goddess Ganga
on Earth to uphold righteousness.

00:16:31.560 --> 00:16:33.440
The blood of
the valorous Raghu clan

00:16:34.040 --> 00:16:35.920
courses through my veins.

00:16:37.120 --> 00:16:40.720
Whether my dynasty
carries on or not,

00:16:42.000 --> 00:16:43.640
I will never violate the principles

00:16:45.200 --> 00:16:46.720
the Raghu clan stands for.

00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:54.920
The tradition of the Raghu clan
shall live on.

00:16:55.520 --> 00:16:57.800
Death over a failed promise!

00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:01.400
- Long live...
- King Nemi!

00:17:01.480 --> 00:17:03.560

[devotional song playing]

00:17:13.120 --> 00:17:15.880
Have you taken the water
of the Sarayu along with the food?

00:17:16.800 --> 00:17:18.040
He prefers only that.

00:17:20.280 --> 00:17:23.320
Are you carrying extra shields
for the battle?

00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:26.560
We are at war against the demons.

00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:29.360
You must always be on your guard
for the King's protection.

00:17:29.480 --> 00:17:31.160
- Long live the king.
- Make haste.

[music playing]

00:17:42.840 --> 00:17:43.880
I understand,

00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:47.320
but your husband is a king.

00:17:48.680 --> 00:17:51.280
It is not easy being a king's wife.

00:17:52.880 --> 00:17:55.840
You understand
your obligations well.

00:17:56.240 --> 00:17:58.520
You look after all my needs.

00:18:00.160 --> 00:18:03.360
I have a council of ministers
to run the entire kingdom,

00:18:04.040 --> 00:18:08.000
but you are the one looking after

00:18:09.520 --> 00:18:11.600
this kingdom and me.

00:18:12.120 --> 00:18:13.480
[joyous music playing]

00:18:15.360 --> 00:18:16.760
At least you smiled!

00:18:17.280 --> 00:18:19.040
Now, see me off.

00:18:20.080 --> 00:18:21.640
May you return victorious.

00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:24.200
I shall eagerly await your return

00:18:25.120 --> 00:18:26.920
and look after everybody here.

00:18:28.120 --> 00:18:31.680
Sumitra, you are so selfless.

00:18:32.600 --> 00:18:35.960
It is as if you were born
in order to serve others.

00:18:36.840 --> 00:18:39.080
You worry about everyone so much.

00:18:40.760 --> 00:18:43.840
Kausalya is the most worried.

00:18:44.760 --> 00:18:47.320
From the time you declared
you will be going to battle,

00:18:48.200 --> 00:18:51.520
she has been observing a fast
and offering prayers at the temple.

00:18:51.760 --> 00:18:53.080
[gentle music playing]

00:19:04.160 --> 00:19:07.960
Queen Sumitra tells me
you are worried.

00:19:08.520 --> 00:19:11.000
I was, and that is why I came here.

00:19:12.280 --> 00:19:14.360
My mind is at ease now
after having prayed.

00:19:16.320 --> 00:19:19.840
May Lord Vishnu help you
in the battle.

'Kaikeyi!'

00:20:43.480 --> 00:20:45.760
I am leaving for the battle.

00:20:46.160 --> 00:20:48.440
May victory be yours, Your Majesty!

00:20:50.920 --> 00:20:53.560
I wish to see it in your eyes.

00:20:53.880 --> 00:20:57.000
Manthara, come here and help me.

00:20:59.320 --> 00:21:00.920
[music playing]

00:21:04.360 --> 00:21:05.760
Tie the strings tightly.

00:21:07.280 --> 00:21:09.360
What is this obstinacy, Kaikeyi?

00:21:10.440 --> 00:21:14.560
Have you heard of
any queen doing this?

00:21:15.800 --> 00:21:17.120
This is not auspicious.

00:21:17.520 --> 00:21:19.600
- 'What are you saying?
- It will not bode well, Kaikeyi.

00:21:22.320 --> 00:21:24.600
I am getting late.
Hurry up, Manthara.

00:21:55.440 --> 00:21:57.000
Why do you worry so much?

00:21:59.880 --> 00:22:01.920
No harm will befall me.

00:22:03.680 --> 00:22:05.520
I am Ashvapati's daughter.

00:22:06.400 --> 00:22:08.200
I come from a clan of warriors.

00:22:09.600 --> 00:22:11.040
The Manthara I knew

00:22:11.320 --> 00:22:12.560
would tell me

00:22:12.840 --> 00:22:15.680
that there was no woman
braver than me in the country.

00:22:18.160 --> 00:22:20.880
- What happened to you, Manthara?
- This...

00:22:21.760 --> 00:22:23.600
This is not auspicious, Kaikeyi.

00:22:24.360 --> 00:22:25.440
This is disastrous.

00:22:27.400 --> 00:22:28.760
I told you

00:22:30.720 --> 00:22:32.440
no harm will come to me.

00:22:34.720 --> 00:22:36.880

[mantra chanting]

00:26:31.080 --> 00:26:34.400
Queen Kausalya,
the face mirrors the mind.

00:26:37.600 --> 00:26:38.840
Please ask.

00:26:39.640 --> 00:26:40.760
What do you want to ask?

00:26:40.880 --> 00:26:43.840
Acharya, it's about a dream.

00:26:44.120 --> 00:26:46.280
I see it repeatedly.

00:26:46.720 --> 00:26:50.000
It makes me anxious.

Acharya, who is he?

00:27:35.760 --> 00:27:39.480
He is the great sage, Kakabhushundi.

00:27:40.200 --> 00:27:44.960
[devotional song playing]

00:27:57.440 --> 00:27:59.240
What are you doing?

Mother, I'm not doing
anything wrong.

00:28:01.600 --> 00:28:04.640
You are the luckiest mother
in the whole world.

00:28:05.000 --> 00:28:08.400

Acharya, I came here
to get rid of my doubt

00:28:43.360 --> 00:28:45.200
but you are smiling away.

00:28:45.520 --> 00:28:49.200
Shri Kakabhushundi's behaviour
and his words

00:28:50.160 --> 00:28:52.240
have made me even more confused.

00:28:52.360 --> 00:28:56.200
Devi, you shouldn't be confused
as it's a good omen.

00:28:56.960 --> 00:28:59.560
Please silence your mind.

00:29:02.320 --> 00:29:04.640
Please focus on Narayana

00:29:04.960 --> 00:29:08.560
and let time
take care of everything.

00:29:50.080 --> 00:29:52.080
Samabarasura is deceptive.

00:29:52.280 --> 00:29:54.920

retreat only on two conditions.

or martyred!

00:31:03.760 --> 00:31:05.080
Fine.

00:31:05.640 --> 00:31:07.480
You'll get martyrdom.

Lord, the battle is going on

00:34:12.520 --> 00:34:15.440
but Sambarasura's arrow
rendered you unconscious.

00:34:15.640 --> 00:34:17.680
I brought you here

[Kaikeyi screaming]

00:36:02.840 --> 00:36:03.880
Kaikeyi!

00:36:04.120 --> 00:36:06.200
I already told you
not to distract me.

00:36:06.360 --> 00:36:08.560
You aren't required in this battle.

00:36:18.720 --> 00:36:19.920
[Sambarasura screaming]

00:36:27.280 --> 00:36:29.320

00:36:33.600 --> 00:36:35.080
Nemi!

00:36:35.720 --> 00:36:38.640
You will be attacked
from ten directions!

00:36:42.520 --> 00:36:44.560
[Nemi grunting]

00:37:15.120 --> 00:37:16.640

- Hail King Nemi of Ayodhya!
- All hail!

00:38:44.200 --> 00:38:45.520
I fought innumerable battles

00:38:45.680 --> 00:38:50.440
but I never saw such bravery
and skill before, my friend Nemi.

00:38:51.160 --> 00:38:52.160
Though you were riding one chariot,

00:38:52.240 --> 00:38:55.520
it seemed you were
fighting from ten directions.

00:38:55.720 --> 00:38:56.560
Unbelievable.

00:38:56.960 --> 00:38:58.400
You aren't just a warrior
but someone

00:38:58.880 --> 00:39:01.800
who rides ten chariots.
You are Dasharatha!

00:39:01.960 --> 00:39:04.280
- Hail King Dasharatha!
- All hail!

00:39:09.320 --> 00:39:10.440
Hail

00:39:11.240 --> 00:39:14.440
Lord Dasharatha...

00:39:17.160 --> 00:39:18.040
Kaikeyi!

00:39:18.320 --> 00:39:19.960
[melancholic music playing]

00:39:21.800 --> 00:39:23.280
